To avoid complications, it is best to transition from one food to another gradually over a period of seven to ten days.

Introduce a small amount of Under the Sun Grain-Free Dry Dog Food into your dog’s regular diet, and see how your dog reacts to that. If your dog is able to easily digest the new food, you can increase the food portion and check again. Go on increasing the food portions and checking for your dog’s reaction, while decreasing the portion of the previous dog food. Finally, once you are sure that the new food is not wrecking havoc with your dog’s digestion, you can feed your pet Under the Sun Grain-Free Dry Dog Food in entirety.
